How Does Mercedes-Benz S500 Alignment Work?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Mercedes-Benz S500’s suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. In an alignment service, calculated changes are made to the angles of your tires. This is so that your tires hit the road at an optimal angle for your vehicle’s performance — just as Mercedes-Benz intended. When your suspension is aligned to Mercedes-Benz’s optimal measurements, all of your tires experience equal pressure. This gives you several benefits: your car handles better, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. When you bring in your 1997 Mercedes-Benz S500, we’ll perform an alignment check first. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Mercedes-Benz’s recommended measurements. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

When to Get Mercedes-Benz S500 Wheel Alignment

It’s wise to have your Mercedes-Benz S500 alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Even a small misalignment can decrease your fuel efficiency, and could cause premature wear on your car if not corrected. You may need to have your alignment checked if you notice any of these signs while driving your 1997 Mercedes-Benz S500: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, excessive wear on only one tire, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or tires that squeal frequently. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your S500 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

How Much Does It Cost for Alignment Service on My Mercedes-Benz S500?

On a budget? Mercedes-Benz S500 wheel alignment might be more affordable than you think. In the long run, it could actually help you save money. Correctly aligned wheels can help boost fuel efficiency and increase the lifespan of your tires, so you can fill up less often, plus get more miles out of your tires. Proper wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs. Call a nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care to get an estimate for 1997 Mercedes-Benz S500 wheel alignment costs today.
